Good powder run on the top. But very limited lifts open with long line.

good coverage and fun skiing

I went single and didn't have to wait long in lines. lines were only bad from 10-1, as in I waited 2 minutes for a lift. east ridge was pretty empty of you can ride the blacks.

Not too wet but heavy. too crowded. not worth 80 bucks but not horrible either.

Went yesterday. It was ok. Runs weren't groomed and a bit soft at the bottoms, but good it you have a pass, not worth it if you are going to play full price. One plus is that Northstar has the most runs and chairs open.

pretty wet yesterday, but still fun for first day on the mountain. trees are tempting, but not enough coverage yet. stick to the groomers.

I asked one of the lift operators, they said they are hoping to get backside open next week. Fun time today. Powder up top. Wet at bottom.

pretty decent today at the top of the mountain.

considering early season conditions, it was really good. the hand full of runs were groomed and fast early then choppy, slushy and crowded by noon. at

2 lifts open, 2 runs. Everyone shut up about the conditions it's not even thanksgiving yet. plus I saw a rainbow. that was a first.

the staff did a great job getting the mountain ready but it does need some natural snow. Went on Opening Day Friday and had fun! Picture is of what needs more snow!

Hats off the the mountain crew - pulling snow off closed runs to keep the back side covered with fast corn snow! It's limited skiing but it's still awesome!

A ton of snow has melted this past week but there is still some great runs open. Head to the back side and ski burnout. Perfect Spring snow. Better to being closed and no lift lines!!

Last 3 weeks flakes have entered the water supply. Boarded from 10-1 in t-shirt. Nice groomers. Started on front and back side and later Lookout Mtn. Wax up, start early, enjoy while it lasts.

Another day of great spring skiing

Great spring skiing. Sunny and fun

Ski the backside all morning. Still firm and fast.

Finally a day of skiing. Missed this place so much. Didn't get to enjoy it this season but maybe this day out would at least heal my ski fever:) Love it! In spite of the conditions.

The trees on the front side are better than the back. It is worth the trip to Lookout Mountain to hit the top of Martis, piles and piles of powder. I was able to hit freshies on nearly every run.

Good conditions still some powder stashes especially on comstock loop

Hit the front side this morning for a few hours. Early ice turning to corn and mashed potatoes... spotty coverage. Hit Kirkwood instead.

Some of the runs are well groomed but some don't have enough snow. You can see patches of dirt/mud. For the price per lift ticket definitely not worth it.

Drove through a snowstorm to get here this morning. Heavy powder. no lines. no kidding! Best snow conditions this month.

Less than a foot of coverage, rocks and stomps to avoid! They lie when it comes to base

The tree runs were incredible. Nice powder up top, a little heavier near the bottom. Overall great day.

Two of my loves in life...

Not a recent pic, but certainly miss the mountain, the powder, the people, the great food and beer, the wonderful restaurants in the Village, the place where I've learned how to ski, and those that helped me succeed. Viva Northstar!

Gorgeous February day. Hard packed snow and a bit icy, but great groomers and not too many people.

I love Northstar. I had a blast there and appreciate all it has and does for us skiers. Haters should go away ....appreciate don't hate.

Amazing sun shining powder day! Worth the long holiday lift lines.

Finally some good runs at northstar. Got a bit of fresh snow overnight and the grooming is decent.

Today rain on the hill. wet snow soup... trails that are not groomed crusty blah...
If you don't have a pass don't waste the trip up. 70 inches hard to believe. Rain scheduled for Sunday.
